Better air flow out is always going to be a good thing - so if you have the spare time i'd say go for it!

you wont get 30bhp or anything but yes its worth it. smooth out the walls and the ports as far in as you can. do not remove the center divider...it seperates the pairs of runners and reduces turbulance.....smoth/polish the walls though

Yeah doing it myself with my Dremmel then having it Plasma coated. Its quite easy to do realy, just takes time. Im not taking any out just cleaning out the casting as you wouldn't belive how rough it is in there !

Give uncle ian a ring as he told me there is one big restriction inside the std manifold that you can grind away which will give you good gains :lol: :shock:

If you do ring him let us know where the restriction is Mikey? Coz i might be doing the same thing (polishing the inside of the exhaust manifold) in the not-too-distant future. :wink: :)
